Add the file max_graph_depth to the debug tracing directory that lets the user define the depth of the function graph. A very useful operation is to set the depth to 1. Then it traces only the first function that is called when entering the kernel. This can be used to determine what system operations interrupt a process. For example, to work on NOHZ processes (single tasks running without a timer tick), if any interrupt goes off and preempts that task, this code will show it happening. # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > max_graph_depth # echo function_graph > current_tracer # cat per_cpu/cpu/<cpu-of-process>/trace Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
